Gear Reviews

Gun people are gear people, period. We love mechanical solutions to problems. So, while you may be able to make a good argument that one might not even use the sights on your pistol in a situation like this, why shortchange yourself? If you have the best gear possible (and train with it accordingly), you will only be better prepared. And, it gives you an excuse to buy more stuff, right? So let’s take a look at the new Trijicon HD XR sights.

Mean Arms has a slick new way to reload AR-pattern rifles with fixed magazines using a modern take on the stripper clip called the MA-Loader.

With a 34mm tube and a 28mm objective lens, Trijicon’s new scope is plenty bright. It’s as suited for tactical guns as it is on hunting rifles.

SIG seems like they are poised to try and take over the world right now, and from the new products I have seen this year that wouldn’t be a bad thing. No surprise then when we saw the new SRD22X rimfire silencer and were told it is the quietest one on the market.

MTM Case Guard has two new products for 2017 that are so simple that they are genius and make you wonder, “why did I not think of that?”.

Night Force has a long reputation for excellence in the premium rifle scope market, and this year they released something epic. The new ATACR 7×35 with a Horus Tremor 3 reticle.

Recently, I’ve been testing a 1-6X variable that’s certainly up to the task and it provides everything needed to exploit the long-range accuracy and high-speed, close-range capability of my CRP 18 Colt Competition Rifle. It is Alpen’s Apex XP AR 1-6X24 scope.

The Dead Foot Arms Modified Cycle System is a retrofit kit that transforms a standard AR-15 into a folding stock rifle and it shoot with the stock folded.

And that, my friends, is when you start looking at Dillon Precision, because Dillon is for the serious reloader.
